Normal service will be resumed in a day or two, in the meantime here's a couple more additions to the 1950's space fleet. I will re-do the last few posts in a more informative and ordered fashion soon.

On the left is a
Poplar Plastics (UK '
Spaceship'), copy of a
Gilmark (US '
Space Hawk') model, on the right is
[probably
not] a
Tudor Rose (UK '
Rocketship') copy of a
Pyro (? US) model, but being reversed colours to the
Poplar, it could be another one of theirs?
[I think it probably is - see above post] The
Poplar is unmarked while the single engined one has the typical '
MADE IN ENGLAND' of
Tudor Rose, and
Poplar were based in Wales. It could also be a
Kleeware design, or even
Marx, they used bronzey colours on some of their readymade/dimestore stuff? Either way it's missing its dorsal fin!
